In a statement, Salam said, “We will not accept that anyone drags the country into ventures that threaten its security and unity.”

Earlier, Agence France-Presse (AFP) quoted a Hezbollah official as saying that the group is unlikely to enter a conflict if the United States carries out a limited strike on Iran, though any move targeting Iran’s leadership, particularly Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei, would cross a “red line.” The Agency described the group’s stance as “conditional,” with involvement directly linked to the scale and intent of potential US military action.
